B-Rep, short for Boundary Representation, is a method used in solid modeling and computer-aided design (CAD) to represent the shape of a 3D object using its geometric boundaries.
A solid is defined by the surfaces, edges, and vertices that enclose its volume, describing precisely where the material of an object ends and the surrounding space begins.
B-Rep is one of the two main approaches to solid modeling — the other being CSG (Constructive Solid Geometry).
